'perf top' segfaults with following operation:

 # perf top -e page-faults -p 11400 # 11400 never generates page-fault

Then on the resulting empty interface, press right key:

 # ./perf top -e page-faults -p 11400
 perf: Segmentation fault

The bug reside in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above circumstance
browser->selection can be NULL, but code after skip_annotation doesn't consider
it.

This patch fix it by checking browser->selection before fetching
browser->selection->map.
